This is my very first time walking on the red carpet for an event! (minus the one we walked during the Miss Universe competition in Mexico last year)
It's such a surreal experience as I never imagine myself walking the red carpet one day... furthermore I got a rub shoulders with Asian A-Listers like Tony Leung, Gigi Leung, Karen Mok, Charlie Yeung, Kim Tae Hee just to name a few. (I was only 2 seats away from Tony Leung!!!) Meeting these Asian stars in the flesh is such an honor as I literally grew up watching their films. I too grew up watching Fann Wong's drama serials! So, sounding a bit like a star-struck little girl here... But these are my honest feelings that went through my mind when I first met them!
I even had the opportunity to chat to Karen Mok for a while in the Museum and found out the boots that she was wearing was sort of "invented" by her as she gave the designer in Ferragamo the idea! Smart and creative lass!
Oh BTW it's not easy to look glam on a cold cold 6 degree windy night by the habour on the red carpet! Notice how everyone around us were wrapped up while we braved the cold in our spring/summer outfits! :)
A picture says a thousand words so enjoy the pics and spot the stars!

Attended the opening ceremony where Zhang Ziyi & Tony Leung opened the show. They were waiting with us in the same waiting area before the whole ceremony begun.
We talked to the Chief Executive of Ferragamo Mr Ferruccio Ferragamo and met his young son as well! Really nice and hospitable family...
And we were given a tour of the History of Ferragamo from how each of the shoes and bags are painstakingly hand crafted to seeing historical pieces of Salvatore Ferragamo's creativity!

Took a group shot with Paul Cadman (on my RHS) and his Mrs.(on Fann Wong's RHS).
That's it for the afternoon event... I'll post up the evening red carpet fashion show when the pics are ready!!

Earlier just now at the museum I was introduced to Karen Mok by Paul Cadman. She's really cute in person and has no airs! I also rubbed shoulders with Tony Leung and Zhang Ziyi though we didn't get introduced nor talked (as the press went crazy with them!) I was so happy just to see them in the flesh! (I know I sound like a star stuck kiddo here) but I really do feel that way when I see the actors I actually grew up watching on the big screen!
Same feeling when I first met Fann and Christopher. (I literally grew up watching all their drama serials! Think since late primary school)
I'll post up the photos

I'm all garbed up in Ferragamo wear waiting to set off while Fann & Christopher are getting ready at this very moment! :)
So, as I'm waiting... I decided to admire the view from the 55th floor and take some photos!

That's me in my room in my cute outfit! I can't wait to see shoes that used to be worn by Greta Garbo, the legendary Marilyn Monroe and Andy Warhol! Ferragamo is really an iconic brand and being able to see all their works since 1928 is a blessing for me! Never did I imagine that I can be present at such a grandeur event!
Keeping U posted!
Love from Shanghai!

Been very busy lately brushing up on my mandarin to prepare myself for Channel 8. I'll be taking up a small supporting role which starts filming in April. I'm very excited and also extremely nervous as I'm very inexperienced in Chinese drama and hope I don't look like a fool on camera!
Also, my new place which we purchased a 2 years ago has TOP!!! That means lotsa planning has to be done to decide on furnishing the place and deciding on the interior decor. Exciting Exciting!!! But stressful too as there's so many things to juggle now with the house in hand!
So many things to do and so little time!!!
